Both the Scottie boys and girls basketball teams topped Poplar at home on Friday night.
The girls built a 33-20 lead by halftime and coasted to a 67-31 victory. Individually for the Scotties: Mayzie Yoakam 23, Emma Mandeville 20, Joely Chappell 15.
Glasgow 83, Poplar 78. The boys had a tougher time with Poplar, with just a one-point lead after the first quarter. Glasgow outscored Poplar 23-19 in the second, and that first-half lead was the difference as both teams scored 13 in the third and 21 in the fourth. (Cade Hudyma 30, Grady Nielsen 16, Colt Hudyma 14, Cash Stulc 11, Gage Waarvik 10 )
The teams host Malta on Saturday at Scottie Gymnasium.
